He slept on it, dreamt about it, woke up and texted the image to his friend Jim Lee, saying: "You could do Wonder Woman like this." And Jim replied: "Hell yeah, you could Have you done any Wonder Woman?" Sharp told him no but he'd get him a piece by the next day He did[...]

Talk about hedging your bets! In one of the least committal statistics ever released by a comic book publisher, DC's Jim Lee revealed that the percentage of DC's readers that are women is somewhere between 15% and 45%, or, in other words, almost none, or nearly half. Lee bases the numbers, basically, on guesswork, according to an[...]

In the course of the discussion, Co-Publisher Jim Lee addressed the spike in sales of Wonder Woman trade paperbacks in the wake of the success of the movie. "We did see lift," Lee revealed "We didn't see the same level of lift that we saw in The Killing Joke.  That was a runaway hit[...]

So about that Milestone revival… At San Diego Comic-Con last month, DC Comics Co-Publisher Jim Lee told panel attendees that the Milestone relaunch would be "codified in the next few months." Lee also confirmed previously revealed plans that Milestone stories would take place on Earth-M, part of the DC Multiverse But a new development could derail[...]

At the Vertigo panel at San Diego Comic Con today, Vertigo kingpin Mark Doyle showed off a sizzle reel, and hinted to attendees that there was some new art he wasn't allowed to talk about in there, in addition to a rundown of Vertigo's greatest hits.

Yesterday at San Diego Comic-Con, during DC's Meet The Publishers Panel, DC co-publishers Jim Lee and Dan Didio made it clear that all Dark Matter titles will not only hold the line at $2.99, but that there will be no variant covers, either. Variant covers have long been considered a staple of comic book publishing, as they[...]

Dan DiDio and Jim Lee, co-publishers of DC, had a lively conversation with the audience that touched on everything from Batman/Elmer Fudd to a few new Grant Morrison projects.

But we are fixing that challenge." At the DC Publishers panel today, DC co-publisher Jim Lee said that the Milestone relaunch would be "codified" in a few months, whatever that means But it's definitely still happening, with Lee reiterating later in the panel that the stories would take place in the alternate universe of Earth-M[...]

During the Q&A, a fan asked about a Marvel Unlimited-style subscription service for DC's back catalog, and co-publisher Jim Lee confirmed that the company has had discussions about it. "We're not ready to pull the trigger," Lee said. Look for our full panel report shortly. DC isn't ready to pull the trigger on a Marvel Unlimited-style comics[...]

At the DC Meet The Publishers panel at San Diego Comic-Con today, DC co-publisher Jim Lee announced plans for the company to launch a new line of books in the style of "evergreen" stories like Watchmen and Dark Knight Returns. Though Lee called it a "soft announcement" of the line, he said that DC is looking[...]

This part is mostly drawn by Jim Lee, but Kubert and Romita Jr do add to parts of this section towards the finale. I will go ahead and say that Dark Days: The Casting is a good bit better than The Forge If you're in this for a yes-no, does it work or not evaluation, the answer[...]

In Dark Days: The Casting, writers Scott Snyder & James Tynion IV make an interesting redefinition of what causes metahumans in the DCU

So of course it feels natural for Batman to be our front and centre character for this issue, though to describe it as a Batman event would be terribly reductive. Cover by Jim Lee, Scott Williams and Alex Sinclair We also get a Joker – sorry, fans hoping for more on the Three Jokers mystery, though it[...]

The series has Ash no longer an S-Mart employee…he found out the hard way that major corporations frown upon the dismemberment of Deadites on company property Go figure! But a change in career won't stop him from being The Chosen One[...]

And wants to recreate something from the nineties instead! Which is why Astonishing X-Men #1 will not have a John Tyler Christopher action figure variant anymore. But will instead have his first Trading Card variant instead! It's available to order by retailers who order Astonishing X-Men #1 with 200% or more of their orders of X-Men Gold #2. Not[...]

So does Batman trust this murderous psychopath with this information? Did the Joker get in on his own, or did Bruce let him in? The problem is, I don't care to get the answers of these questions because it's so obviously a shock-stinger that could not possibly have a satisfying answer. This book has a very talented[...]

Here are the latest batch. But what incentive do retailers and customers have to place value on current tiered variants if this is where they'll end up in a few years? SUPERMAN #23 VARIANT EDITION 1:25 SUPERMAN #30 VARIANT EDITION 1:25 SUPERMAN #31 VARIANT EDITION 1:25 SUPERMAN #32 VARIANT EDITION 1:25 SUPERMAN #33 BLACK & WHITE VARIANT EDITION 1:50 SUPERMAN #33 VARIANT[...]

Find previous columns here. As many already know, Marvel's variant theme for July is Jim Lee They're using Jim Lee artwork from a card set that came out in the '90s I remember the set Six cards in a pack, if memory holds correctly Hard to get cool gold foil cards. I was in high school at[...]

The problem I'd say lies in that there's little rhyme or reason in how the artists have seen their duties split up. The work from Andy Kubert, Jim Lee, John Romita Jr., Danny Miki, Klaus Janson and Scott Williams is all top notch, but instead of one art team tackling specific scenes, they seem to jump[...]

What to do? What to do? If you're Marvel, you announce that the month of July will be marked by 29 comics featuring variant covers using old Jim Lee art from a trading card set made in 1990s Lee, currently the Co-Publisher of DC, is one of the most needle-moving artists of all time, but the whole[...]

According to a report yesterday on Bleeding Cool, DC Co-Publisher Jim Lee revealed the metal foil cover to Dark Days: The Forge, the prequel to the Dark Nights: Metal super-mega-crossover event, which is itself a lead-in for the Dark Matter publishing initiative Professor Hawking bumped up his doomsday prediction, which was previously set at 1,000[...]

DC decided on this progression after unearthing a centuries-old prophecy from the renowned prophet Danstrodidimos, which said, "First Comes The Dark Days, Which Gives Way To The Dark Nights, Which Gives Birth To The Dark Matter." Close adherence to the publishing ritual will result in increased sales for DC and continued public relations mishaps for their competitors[...]
